Hey! I am a Biology major too. I don't think there is a limited opportunity for Biology majors. I mean there are so many fields you can go to from being a Biology major - there is microbiology, molecular biology, parasitology, immunology, biochemistry, cell biology, oncology, zoology and botany to name a few. I guess Zoology and Botany might not pay that much but if you decide to go to academia, everything will pay and you might have be be a postdoc for 3-4 years but if you love doing that, it is every bit worth it. And if you want to work in companies, may be microbiology, genetic engineering, biochemistry, cell biology would be a better option. And I have heard of people who majored in Biology and then went to law school and made shit loads of money as lawyers because of their biology knowledge. There is also Public Health and also Conservation related subjects.. I dunno much about them though..... And I think for a Bachelors, Biomedical engineering would make you more limited than Biology.....
